Yea, best change for me was going from 2 sccops twice a day to 2 scoops 3 times a day. One shake for morning, one post workout around 3-4pm and one before bed (all with low-fat milk). With that it was easy to get away with a light lunch (just eggs) and a normal dinner with no carbs. It was pretty much a keto diet but I doubt I was in full keto. I do a lot of martial arts (kickboxing, boxing, karate) so I'd normally have a big glass of OJ, a banana and maybe a small white rice ball wrapped in dried seaweed before a training session to give me some extra energy/stamina.
Cutting's fucking easy. Wife my wife could understand that, heh.
Keep protein high, reduce calories as necessary. Replace a good percentage of your carbs with protein/fats and actually keep track of the number of calories you're eating. There's really not much to it, throw in some cardio a few times a week and lift hard and you'll be able to drop that fat easily. If you decide to run some type of AAS I'd save it til your bodyfat is close to 10%, as that is when you will need the assistance the most.
fasted early morning cardio consists of Roadwork covering about 4 miles interspersed with calisthenics such as handstand press ups, dips, hindu squats, fingertip press ups then lighter exercises so as to utilise (I think its called) the 'reserve pyramid super-set' principal.
Training everyday like that and some days running/swimming in the afternoon too.
I am eating 5-6 times per day but I am beginning to suspect that I have not dropped my calories sufficiently yet. I am a chef, so eating right is not a problem (making healthy, clean food taste yummy that is). but being surrounded by mince pies, unwrapped sitting on top of a warm oven crying eat me eat me eat me... can be testing!
I'm sure you can all relate some-how or other!
I need to pay more attention to measuring calories that much is obvious.
If anybody is interested I'll post some recipes for tasty meals.
It will be nice to give something back to the community
I now KNOW thats I hadn't reduced the calories enough.
Now I have and in just under a week and can see a difference!
Will post pics in a few more weeks or when I next "think" I've achieved single digits lol
